A spelunker is surveying a cave. She follows a passage 180 m straight west, and then 210 m in a direction 35° east of south. After a third unmeasured displacement, she finds herself 150 m, 20° south of east from where she started. Use the method of components to determine the magnitude and direction of the third displacement.

Mariana finds a cave to explore. Starting at the cave entrance, Mariana first follows a passage 75.0 m north, then turns and moves 250 m east, then goes 101 m at an angle 30.0° north of east, and finally moves 184 m south. Find the resultant displacement from the cave entrance. Shown is a sketch of the situation not drawn to scale. (Give the magnitude of the displacement in m and the direction in degrees south of east.)

You take a three-day hike. On the first day, you travel 5.0 km heading east. On the second you enjoyed the scenery so much you forgot to take note how far you have walked and in what direction. On the third day, after wandering for 8.5 km and in the direction 370 south of west, you found yourself in the base camp. Determine your displacement during the second day of your trip. Use the scale 1.0 cm : 2.0 km.
In the next sets, you are given the magnitude and one component. There is an ambiguity in determining the vector, because you can only determine the absolute value of the other component and not its sign; therefore, there are two possibilities. In these tables, you must enter the absolute value of the component and provide two angles for the vector, the first one assuming the other component is positive and the other assuming the component is negative. You must also provide two angles for the antiparallel vector in the same order.
